Malaspina Glacier dominates this coastal landscape, illustrating the massive ice fields that define this region of Alaska. Situated within the protected expanse of Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park, the map captures the intricate movement of the ice, including the confluence of the Seward Glacier as it flows south toward the Gulf. The survey details the high-altitude contours and glacial drainage patterns that remain largely untouched by human settlement. This record is particularly valuable for documenting the 2017 state of these glaciers, providing a baseline for researchers tracking the movement and recession of one of the largest piedmont glaciers in North America.
